This applies to your garage and/or screened-in porch as well. Portable generators must be located at least 15 feet away from your home. If you are going to run a portable generator, you should have carbon monoxide detectors installed in your home, and test them periodically to make sure they are working properly.

The American Red Cross recommends permanently installed standby generators as they are a safer way to provide backup power to a home, eliminating much of the carbon monoxide risk associated with portable generators. Automatic standby generators start running the second your power turns off and then power off again the second power is restored to your home. Portable generators, on the other hand, need to be hauled outside and need to be manually turned both on and off. Lastly, because they run on your home’s Gas or LP supply, which will save you money.
